Maruya Sushi closes its tiny Fillmore shop after 45 years.

MARUYA SUSHI served its final saba sushi on October 29, 2010, after feeding generations of neighbors for the past 45 years. Yoshimi and Kats Oune have retired and closed their take-out sushi shop, which was begun by her mother. The tiny storefront at 1904 Fillmore will become a jewelry store.

    Wonderful piece. I remember when the jazz clubs on Fillmore stayed open past two — this brought it all back. Thank you for keeping the memory of the neighborhood alive.

    We've lived on Pine near Steiner for thirty-one years and it still surprises us how much this paper notices. Please keep going.

    A small correction — the mochi shop on Post opened in 1982, not 1985. My grandfather was there for the ribbon cutting. Love the coverage otherwise.
